Heidi Heitkamp Campaigns in Grand ForksGRAND FORKS, ND (WDAZ-TV) - Heidi Heitkamp made her first stop in Grand Forks since announcing her run for U.S. Senate.
GRAND FORKS, ND (WDAZ-TV) - Heidi Heitkamp made her first stop in Grand Forks since announcing her run for U.S. Senate.
Grand Forks' Democratic District Convention meeting took place this morning where Heitkamp weighed in on some popular issues.
As Senator Kent Conrad leaves Washington, the race for his seat will become very closely watched. Right now, it's expected to be a tight race between Republican candidate Rick Berg and Heidi Heitkamp on the democrat side. This morning, Heitkamp asked for support at the Grand Forks district meeting.
"I think I have the experience, I've obviously spent a lot of time working for the people of North Dakota and have a great passion," said U.S. Senate Candidate, Heidi Heitkamp.
Heitkamp is using her diversity as former attorney general and candidate for governor as an advantage. Her job as Director of Dakota Gasification is an issue where her knowledge on energy could win votes.
"Needs to involve renewable, winds, solar, it needs to involve coal," said Heitkamp.
She also believes the nation needs to stray away from depending on foreign oil.
"We need to make sure that we have a domestic supply of petroleum because we know what happens when we're completely dependent on foreign oil," said Heitkamp.
Heitkamp notes a big part of North Dakota is agriculture.
"I don't want anyone to forget how important that farmer is," said Heitkamp.
Her next step in campaigning besides working to secure the vote is talking about issues she believes other candidates won't talk about, like working mothers, something she can relate to.
"And you might say oh well here we go those are girl issues but they're not they're economic issues," said Heitkamp.
Energy, oil, and keeping women in the workplace are what she'll focus on during her campaign. A poll from November showed Heitkamp was ahead 5% over House Representative Rick Berg. In the months to come, North Dakota residents will watch a competitive campaign.

The ideal ski jacket keeps you warm when you're on the lift, dry when you encounter rain or wet snow, and breathes easily so you won't feel soggy under the shell. A jacket designed for resort skiing will have features focused on comfort or convenience whereas a jacket designed for the minimalist or backcountry skier will keep things simple to save weight. In general, ski jackets tend to be more technical and feature a trimmer fit and shorter length than snowboard jackets.

Fat is not bad: Finally some validation!
FAT IS NOT SO BAD: Finally…Some Validation!!! A recent article in The Scientific American offers up even more evidence that saturated fats may not be the culprit linked to heart disease, rather, refined carbohydrates. YES! (This is me fist pumping) I have been preaching this for years, and finally some reprieve. "Eat less saturated fat" has been the take home message from the US government for the last 30 years and we have listened. While Americans have dutifully reduced caloric intake from saturated fat since the 1970's, the obesity rate has doubled, diabetes has tripled, and heart disease is still the country's biggest killer. It seems that we have implicated the wrong macronutrient this whole time (or, there was too much money to be made on promoting grains as "heart healthy"). In March the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition published a meta-analysis—which combines data from several studies—that compared the reported … Continue Reading

Why You Should Consider Installing Windows 8 On Your MacBook Pro
There are two reasons you should consider installing Microsoft's latest Windows 8 operating system on your MacBook with BootCamp.

This April marks the 20th commemoration of the genocide in Rwanda -- where we both trace our roots. As we take time this month to remember the events of 1994, honour the lives lost, and reaffirm our commitment to never again stand by and let another genocide take place, a troubling situation is unfolding in Burundi that appears frighteningly reminiscent of Rwanda pre-1994.
Yes, I'm an ambassador for Record Store Day (that's even official). Yes, I have a single out on Record Store Day. Yes, my label is releasing a long lost track of Dub Sex (recorded by the legendary Martin Hannett, available in participating outlets). Yes, I have a list of records that are out that day that I'd like for my own collection. But does this make me biased? Yes, of course it does but it doesn't mean I can't have my say. I've heard the grumbles about there being too many releases, even conspiracy theories about major labels clogging up the schedules of pressing plants so that small labels can't get their stock in time. But, for me, these are good problems to have.
After centuries of being objectified, our chief feminist demand, as reflected by the stars we've elevated to celebrity status, is the right to be sexy. This is, to put it bluntly, farcically sad.
Emmylou Harris' Wrecking Ball came out in 1995, when I was 17 years old, and remains for me among the most influential albums I've ever heard. I have gone on to become a music historian, a rock critic, and a musician, and though I probably would have done all of those things with my life, it's tough to imagine the way my musical education would have progressed had it not been for Wrecking Ball.
When the first crappy music makes it into our house, I will sit my kids down, play the entire Pink Floyd discography, then The Beatles, then Simon & Garfunkel. And Bjork. And Death Cab for Cutie. And Arcade Fire. Then The Velvet Underground. Then Talking Heads.
Social networking was changing my views on Coachella and those views were rubbing me the wrong way. It was starting to feel that if you're a super cool person and if you're a somebody, you're at Coachella. I didn't like that one bit.
The following is probably the shortest interview I've ever done. But it gets to the heart of what I wanted to learn about this smart, warm and honest performer.
Kurt Cobain died on April 5, 1994, but we only found out about it on April 8, when an initially unidentified body was discovered in the room above his garage. I was in first-year university. As a father, I can't even fathom the depth of despair he must have been feeling to leave his daughter. And now as a listener with a child, I can't help but let that startling selfishness affect my feelings for his music.
If you listen to every Beck record released, you'll reach one conclusion: all of his songs sound completely different from the last.
The new-wave acts of the early '80s represent everything that mainstream pop acts aren't so free to be today. Imagine One Direction hitting the stage dressed like Kajagoogoo. Would teenage girls still go wild? Would Taylor Swift have dated one of them?
Drake assumes the role of the present day Berry Gordy Jr., behind his label he has assimilated a team of heavy hitters that do it all in-house.
I'm not trying to put down the fangirl/fanboy community at all. I just think people who enjoy putting other people down for not knowing about something as deeply as they do need to take a look in the mirror.
Nirvana did what all great bands do: they made everyone else catch up. Mainstream radio accommodated alternative music's idiosyncracies, in the case of Nirvana the confrontation of Cobain's distorted guitar, vocal roughness, sonic dissonance, and deliberately nonsensical lyrics. Whatever one's view of Cobain, it is undeniable that he set pop music on a new course.
I recently ended up on a talk radio show based in my hometown of Calgary. "Is this Rae Spoon?" asked the interviewer. "Yes, it is," I replied. "And you are transgender, right?" "Yes, I am." "And we're supposed to use a different word for you?"...In over 10 years, through the hundreds of interviews I'd done with people firing questions at me about being transgender, I had always tried to avoid answering the ones that sounded like they were something off of Jerry Springer.
To only remember Cobain as bitterly conflicted by his own success is to allow his suicide to overshadow the reason he was the anointed one.
It was a surreal spectacle to witness during a big-budget pop show in which so much as an unplanned stumble make headlines.

TALLAHASSEE -- This time next week, the Florida State Seminoles could be close to finding the sixth and final assistant coach to join their staff since late December.
Head coach Jimbo Fisher told reporters Wednesday afternoon during a National Signing Day news conference that he will be bringing in candidates next week as he tries to fill the vacancy left late last month by former offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach James Coley. About three weeks before Signing Day, Coley, who had served as the team's recruiting coordinator and tight ends coach in earlier roles, left to take a job as Miami's new offensive coordinator.
Fisher said he won't be doing any interviews the rest of this week or over the weekend because, quite frankly, "I ain't going to lie. I need sleep."
The fourth-year coach has spent the past month-and-a-half not only trying to maintain a recruiting class that finished in the top 10 of most recruiting services, but he also was luring assistants following a mass postseason exodus. In addition to Coley, former assistants Mark Stoops, D.J. Eliot, Eddie Gran, Greg Hudson and Dameyune Craig all left for other opportunities.
The Seminoles hadn't had much time in recent weeks to even discuss candidates to replace Coley because they had been finalizing recruiting for 2013 and getting a jump on the 2014 group.
When it comes to the new assistant, Fisher said he is expecting to hire a quarterbacks coach or at least a coach who has some experience with the position.
"Most likely, yes. [It will be] a quarterback guy," Fisher said. "I would say there's a high percentage of that."
Before Coley was moved to quarterbacks in mid January, Craig had served in the capacity for Fisher. A former quarterback underneath Fisher at Auburn, Craig went back to his alma mater to serve as a co-offensive coordinator.
While Coley was at FSU, he was an offensive coordinator, but in name only. While he helped set gameplans and suggested in-game offensive adjustments from his view in the press box, Coley played a minor role in the actual playcalling process. As he has done since he was an offensive coordinator, Fisher called the plays.
In time, the plan was for Coley to take over those duties, Fisher said.
"In the near future of what we're trying to do, eventually I would have liked to do that," Fisher said. "That's one of the reasons I wanted to put him in with quarterbacks.
"Because if you call a game, it's very important to see the game through the quarterback's eyes. That's as an important thing to calling plays as there is, and that's a very key element to what we want to develop."
Fisher didn't close the door on the possibility that his next hire could be a true offensive coordinator.
"It's about who we're able to hire and who we're able to get and what we're able to do," he said. "We'll wait and see when the guys come with the interview process and where they're at."
As he did with his earlier hires, Fisher is expecting to take his time mulling over this one.
"I had to think long-term," Fisher said of his other five hires. "To fix something quickly would have cost you in the long run, and I wouldn't have done that. I wanted to make sure it was the right guys for the staff in the long run who were working with what we were trying to do."
FSU's newest assistants are: defensive coordinator Jeremy Pruitt, running backs coach Randy Sanders (who has offensive coordinator experience), tight ends coach and recruiting coordinator Billy Napier (who has offensive coordinator experience), linebackers coach and special teams coordinator Charles Kelly and defensive ends coach Sal Sunseri.

... he lied to me. Although to be fair, it was more a lie of omission than a barefaced lie
Pardon me if this feels like ancient history. But this is a story I've never put into print (or pixels) before, and I figured if not now, when?
It was December 1982 and a crowd of journalists had gathered in a meeting room at The Pierre, a luxury hotel one block north of the site Steve Jobs would later choose for the Fifth Avenue Apple Store's big glass cube.
Jobs, then 26, was there to introduce the media to the wonders of the Lisa. He was selling it hard, even though (we later learned) he'd already been forced off the Lisa team and had seized control of a second, top-secret project.
I was a reporter-researcher at Time magazine on a 12-month probationary writer's trial. I'd heard that the Lisa had something to do with work done at Xerox's (XRX) Palo Alto Research Center, and to prep for the meeting I had read and re-read the only substantive story I could find about Xerox PARC -- a long article in Byte magazine on Smalltalk.

By Brian Messenger
---- — METHUEN — Scrapping his prior plan for closed-door interviews, City Council Chairman Sean Fountain said the four finalists for the city solicitor job will instead be interviewed during a public meeting late next week.
Fountain announced the change yesterday after consulting with a representative from Attorney General Martha Coakley's office. The Eagle-Tribune reported Tuesday that Fountain's plan to conduct the interviews in executive session was a flagrant violation of the state's Open Meeting Law.
Fountain is chairman of a six-member search committee overseeing the city solicitor hiring process. The committee violated the Open Meeting Law last week when members held a secret meeting to select the four finalists for the job.
Fountain said he was told by the attorney general's office yesterday that once finalists are selected, the search committee can no longer legally interview job applicants in closed-door executive sessions.
Fountain said he also sought clarification on the interview process and Open Meeting Law this week from City Solicitor Peter McQuillan and Secretary of the Commonwealth William Galvin's office. "I'm waiting for the two responses," he said.
The search committee is expected to meet again either Monday or Wednesday. Fountain said the four finalists will be made public after the meeting. Job interviews before the full Council are expected to follow next Thursday or Friday, he said.
The search for a new city lawyer was triggered Jan. 7 when the City Council voted 5-4 against reappointing McQuillan to a two-year term.
A dozen people applied for the job and the search committee met for the first time Jan. 31 at City Hall, according to a meeting notice filed three days prior with the City Clerk's office. But a notice for a second meeting held Feb. 6 was never filed or posted for the public to view.
The Open Meeting Law in Massachusetts requires that meetings of public bodies — including City Council subcommittees — be publicized 48 hours in advance.
Five of six search committee members attended the Feb. 6 secret session: city councilors Fountain, Jennifer Kannan and Lisa Ferry, and local lawyers Arthur Broadhurst and Bryan Chase. Fountain said the meeting was held at Broadhurst's Methuen law office.
Absent from the meeting was Councilor Tom Ciulla. Yesterday, Fountain said he didn't believe he was required to post a notice of the meeting because only three members of the City Council were expected to be in attendance.
It is believed the field of candidates was narrowed from 12 to eight at the first meeting and then down to four finalists at last week's unpublicized meeting. Fountain said the search committee selected finalists through interviews and reference and background checks.

City v Villa: Paddy Power specials
- 25 September 2012 15:41
- Posted by Nicola McCarthy
Manchester City's draw with Arsenal at the Etihad Stadium on Sunday maintains the champions' unbeaten league start to the season.
Tonight they face Aston Villa in the newly-renamed Capital One Cup, the only domestic competition Roberto Mancini has yet to win with the club. He is 6/1 to add it to his growing collection this season.
Paul Lambert's Aston Villa side are coming off a 4-1 away defeat to Southampton and are yet to record an away win this season. The four goals they conceded in the second half at St Mary's and the fact that they are playing at the Etihad could see Villa adopt a more defensive formation.
Manchester City have won five of the last six meetings between the two clubs and six-in-a-row at the Etihad Stadium. At home they've scored at least three goals in each of Aston Villa's last four visits, winning by a margin of two goals or better. In the last three home games against Villa Roberto Mancini's side have won by at least a three goal margin. Manchester City -1 goal tonight is 5/6 and -2 goals is 21/10.
One big plus from the draw with Arsenal was seeing Sergio Aguero make his first start following his return from injury. The Argentine will benefit from the game time and if he plays tonight he should be that much sharper. He is 3/1 to score first tonight.
Mario Balotelli has scored five goals in Manchester City's last three home games against Aston Villa. Hitting the net at least once on each occasion. If the Italian starts tonight then the stats tell us he should be backed to score first at 4/1 or to score anytime at 5/6 with Paddy Power.
Not quite as prolific as Balotelli but offering a greater potential profit is Joleon Lescott. He has scored twice against Aston Villa over the last two seasons and having hit the net against Arsenal on Sunday he is certainly worth a look at 15/2 to score anytime. If Paul Lambert does decide to play a defensive game we could see more corners and free-kicks around the Aston Villa penalty area for Manchester City. This will bring the defenders in to play and both Lescott and Vincent Kompany are serious threats from set-pieces. Kompany is 15/2 to score anytime.

Blagojevich to Pen 'Embarrassing' Book About the Dark Side of Politics
Impeached former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich signed a six-figure book deal and plans to write a book "exposing the dark side of politics," according to his publicist.
Monday, March 02, 2009
Disgraced former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich plans to write a book "exposing the dark side of politics," according to his publicist.
Blagojevich, who was accused of trying to trade President Obama's former Senate seat for money and political favors, signed a six-figure book deal Monday, according to publicist Glenn Selig.
The impeached former governor, who was ousted from office following his arrest on federal corruption charges, denies any wrongdoing and plans to detail how he chose Obama's successor in the Senate, his publicist said.
Selig said Blagojevich's book will tell the truth about what happened and reveal information "that will at times be embarrassing to himself as well as to others."
The book, which does not yet have a title, will be published by Phoenix Books and released in October, Selig said.
The Associated Press contributed to this report.

Summary of The Hemingway Book Club of Kosovo Summary of The Hemingway Book Club of Kosovo Reviews for The Hemingway Book Club of Kosovo An Excerpt from The Hemingway Book Club of Kosovo
A moving testimony to the power of literature to bring people together in even the most difficult of circumstances.
In the spring of 1999, the world watched as more than 800,000 Kosovo Albanians poured over Kosovo's borders, bringing with them stories of torture, rape, and massacre. One year later, Paula Huntley's husband signed on with the American Bar Association to help build a modern legal system in this broken country, and she reluctantly agreed to accompany him. Deeply uncertain as to how she might be of any service in a country that had seen such violence and hatred, Huntley found a position teaching English as a Second Language to a group of Kosovo Albanians in Prishtina.
A war story, a teacher's story, but most of all a story of hope, The Hemingway Book Club of Kosovo is the journal Hunt-ley kept in scattered notebooks or on her laptop over the eight months that she lived and worked in Kosovo. When Huntley asked her students if they would like to form an American-style "book club," they jumped at the idea. After stumbling upon a stray English-language copy of Ernest Hemingway's The Old Man and the Sea, Huntley proposed it as the club's first selection. The simple fable touched all the students deeply, and the club rapidly became a forum in which they could discuss both the terrors of their past and their dreams for the future.
The Hemingway Book Club of Kosovo is a compelling tribute to the resilience of the human spirit.

Possible candidates:
Melissa McEwen: Sharp as a whip, not afraid to tussle. Strategic use of monkey pictures.
Representative posts: "Uses and misuses of evolutionary biology 2" and "I have diabetes".

Representative posts: "The holy trinity: CT-4" and "My top ten PaleoFX moments"
Kurt Harris: One of the original paleo bloggers and an influence to many, Kurt's specialties are synthesis and calling out things he sees as pseudoscience.
Representative posts: "Paleo 2.0: A diet manifesto" and "No such thing as a macronutrient"
Stabby Raccoon: Not a blogger per se, but comments frequently and intelligently. Apparently knows a lot about how to cure a hangover.
Representative posts: "The Highbrow Paleo guide to binge drinking" and the sequel
Kamal Patel: Also not a blogger per se, but occasionally will cause your gut to bust. Writes about pain issues.
Representative posts: "Fire adaptation: activate your ancient pathway" and "Nightshades: delicious or deadly?"

Representative posts: "Over 18 months soap and shampoo free" and "Leangains: Martin Berkhan's workout approach"

Kamal ftw no one else comes close. I mean c'mon that Nikoley post re:kruse Kamals comments were awesome
This exchange ~to me~ was pure gold
Kamal Patel // Apr 3, 2012 at 19:34
To drum up some extra traffic for you, let me just say that Jack Kruse is not a credible source when it comes to boobs double insertion glutathione asian chicks penis pump.
Brenda // Apr 3, 2012 at 21:21
seriously lol
Kamal Patel // Apr 3, 2012 at 21:40
Dude, Brenda, did you get to this page by googling about glutathione penis pumps? Awesome.
I actually spat coffee on my desk when I read this and laughed uncontrollably hard - I even read it to coworkers who asked for Kamal's website after that!
+1. Indeed.....
Answer by Kamal 27300 · Apr 08 '12 at 12:33 AM
It's Melissa by a longshot. I've laughed out loud reading her posts and comments, which rarely happens for me. Except for when I saw this epic comment by Emily Deans on Richard's recent post. No particular disrespect to Kruse or Richard, but oogie boogie this is good....
(Context: Emily Deans had been saying that Kruse's MRSA experiment was dangerous, and Richard was basically saying that it wasn't so dangerous to others if Kruse took precautions, and Kruse was mostly impacting just himself)
Richard Nikoley: Emily, who did Kruse inject with bacteria?
Emily Deans: An idiot
Answer by being 15422 · Apr 08 '12 at 12:47 AM
i love them all (not true) but kamals fire adaptation post today had me laughing so hard i blew a booger out on the keyboard.
Answer by none 16390 · Apr 08 '12 at 01:05 AM
For blog posts or comments on blog posts? Many times the blogs are good, but the comments are GOLD! Also, if anyone has ever followed Stabby, you know that his/her/its comments are many times BETTER than the posts themselves. Twitter @StabbyRaccoon. (Note: this is not me).
Answer by Stabby 17290 · Apr 08 '12 at 01:35 AM
I love them all (except for that Stabby rascal. Such a charlatan.)
Melissa's blog is a blast to read. Informative, well-presented, and I like when she gets feisty!
Jack Kruse isn't always easy to understand and I don't always agree, but when I just read to see what I can garner from the massive hurricane of concepts I always leave with a smile.
Kurt Harris just don't care! And that's a good thing.
Kamal is hilarious to the funny bone.
Same with Nikoley. Can be a bit crude but I like it when he bashes people that I don't like. Same goes for Anthony Colpo for that matter.
Emily is just an all-around solid writer. Good facts, good humor, and pretty much the most calming voice ever. So I read it in my head as her voice. Creepy? You decide!
Another is Chris Masterjohn. He always has incredible articles that entertain me because I'm somehow entertained by the subject matter. But he also has a funny way of anthropomorphizing biochemicals, as seen here http://www.westonaprice.org/blogs/cmasterjohn/2012/04/07/glutathione-101-part-1-cysteine-misbehaves-but-glutathione-saves/ and elsewhere.
So to answer your question, I can't answer your question.
Answer by jesuisjuba - paleorepublic.com 20596 · Apr 08 '12 at 01:04 AM
Well, hell. I was going to say me, as this isn't Viking: The Ultimate Obstacle Course, but damn that Kamal.. he's too good.
So phasers set to huzzah mode. pew pew
Honorable mention to Stabby and Matthew. pew
Answer by Carly 4953 · Apr 08 '12 at 06:11 AM
Kamal! Kamal! Kamal! Kamal! Kamal! Kamal! A thousand times Kamal. And have thought his since I first frequented here nearly 18 months ago. I am appointing myself as unofficial cheerleader. Wooooh, goooo Kamal!! Totally love Stabby too <3
Answer by Nance 407 · Apr 08 '12 at 02:31 AM
I have leptin fatigue, so I haven't read Jack's blog in a month or so. I like the others listed and enjoy their posts/comments very much.
On Twitter, I have to say I've enjoyed many giggles from reading conversations between Robb Wolf and his followers as well as between That Paleo Guy and Emily, Melissa and others.
She wasn't nominated, but I get a lot of entertainment--and some clarification of science--from Evelyn's Carb Sane Asylum. I've had to read many paragraphs more than once because I just couldn't believe what I thought I'd read.
Answer by gydle 5091 · Apr 08 '12 at 03:15 PM
Is Denise Minger counted as "in the Paleosphere"? I love the way she writes - it's funny, smart and cuts right down to the point. I loved her takedown of the meat study and the China Study.
Answer by ben61820 16271 · Apr 08 '12 at 12:27 AM
I find Melissa has the most entertaining blog. She's insightful, fun-to-read, educated, open-minded, and has a young lay person's approach. I don't read it religiously but anytime I do I am impressed.

After 3 days and a thousand searches I'm out of ideas. There seems to be several of us having this problem and we haven't found a solution.
My phone was working fine for over a month and then suddenly wouldn't power on so at least in my case it wasn't a mod gone bad.
When I try to restore with 1.1.2 and 1.1.1 it fails with error 1603
When I try to restore with 1.0.2 it fails with error 1011
If I downgrade to 1.0.2 with iBrickr it will always stop at the yellow triangle until I go through the activate process with pacay, then will boot up ok, but get "repair needed" message.
I stopped CommCenter. When I run Ieraser it always hangs at "waiting for data"
If I run ./bbupdater -v it will say "pinging the baseband", then "baseband unresponsive to pinging"
If I try to update the baseband firmware it will try 10 times and come back "baseband bootloader is too old. update to 1.8 or later" Same if I try to update the baseband bootloader (bbupdater -l BOOT03.09_M3S2.fls)
I've tried going through the whole process several times with each version of the firmware, starting with 1.1..2 and 1.1.1, then starting with those and downloading, and just about every combination I can think of. Nothing works. I'm thinking a comm board may be my only fix. Anything I've missed?
Also, is it possible to search this forum for a phrase instead of individual words?
thanks in advance...

Life with Bird Summer 12/13
Posted on April 19th, 2012
I attended the Life With Bird show, celebrating their 10th Anniversary this morning at the Opera House. A gorgeous collection of pastels, muted digital prints and draping was on show in a beautiful room overlooking the harbour.
Montana Cox (next top model winner) opened the show so I'm going to take a wild guess she'll be working her butt off during MBFWA. Good for her!
I decided to try my hand at recording the show for you all, so let me know if you like it!
I also got to catch up with fellow FELLT girls Jess, Nicole and Marg which was great. We sometimes find it hard to catch up with all our schedules but it's so lovely when we do.
PS. How cute are Bridget (Bird) and Nick!

All the chixxx in this movie were hot! The camera caught them all at great angles and great positions. Recommended. BLOWN!
Kagney and Kylee were very hot and the action was great. Good closeups and camera angles, and great cinematography throughout. Well worth a rent. Blown!
Faye Reagan's acting was, as usual, over the top and excessive. She needs to learn how to make it look like she's really into it instead of acting. Alexis Love was hot. I love Evie but this wasn't her best work. The cinematography was lame on this one and could have been greatly improved with better clarity. And the music was cheesy. Blown!
I rented this mainly to see Neesa, who for those of you unfamiliar with her, is a beautiful sexy lady. But her performance was too acted and humor-filled. Candy Manson does a 2 on 1 which doesn't appeal to me. Etalia - ehh, I just didn't find her appealing. All in all, an average effort. Others may like it better than me. Blown!
What a lineup of gorgeous ladies on this one. Disc 1 was good, but this one is the headliner. Brittany O'Connell is steaming hot in her set. Lisa Ann, gorgeous as ever. Shayla back for an encore. And Sienna West - stunning. All filmed with superb camera angles and poses in hot lingerie, great spooge shots. Just an awesome, awesome movie. BLOWN! Five stiff dicks!
The women, though many of them were not stars, were very attractive. Cinematography was very good with tight, long-lasting closeups, good camera angles and all around good filming. The ladies all performed quite well and looked great giving head. The initial shot of each of them descending on the guy's unit with their pussies was excellent.
This movie had the makings of a great flick, but it appears to have been done on a low budget. None of the ladies were dressed sexy, makeup was minimal, and the acting was bad. I'm a huge fan of Evie's, but this was not among her best films. Sierra too. She didn't look her best nor did she perform her best. The other ladies were OK but not outstanding. Not bad, but not great. Could have been much better. Blown!
The ladies were hot, the cinematography was good, and despite the apparently intended lame attempt at a plot, the flick was quite good. Great action. Blown!
The cinematography in this movie was pretty lousy, not so bad that you couldn't watch, but it was distracting. Many of the ladies in this flick weren't all that, and even Rayveness couldn't save this one for me. Blown!
There are some incredible ladies in this flick. Too bad the cinematography is AWFUL, and the audio is lousy. A better movie could have been made with a $300 handycam.

One-quarter of the space on this year's census form is taken up with questions of race and ethnicity, which are clearly illegitimate and none of the government's business .I have a proposal.
Question 9 on the census form asks "What is Person 1's race?" (and so on, for other members of the household). My initial impulse was simply to misidentify my race so as to throw a monkey wrench into the statistics; a Puerto Rican Muslim or a Samoan Buddhist. But lying in this constitutionally mandated process is wrong. Really — don't do it.
Instead, I am answering Question 9 by checking the last option — "Some other race" — and writing in "American." It's a truthful answer but at the same time is a way for ordinary citizens to express their rejection of unconstitutional racial classification schemes.
In fact, "American" was the plurality ancestry selection for respondents to the 2000 census in four states and several hundred counties.\
So remember: Question 9 — "Some other race" — "American". Pass it on.

Brain-Behavioral Vulnerabilities Laboratory
Research Areas
The research focus of the Brain-Behavioral Vulnerabilities (BBV) Laboratory is the vulnerability to relapse, and to addiction itself. In the view of BBV investigators, vulnerability is tied to the function (and dysfunction) of two critical, interactive, brain systems: 1) the ancient brain "GO!" system, providing the powerful motivation for natural rewards such as food and sex, and 2) the brain's inhibitory or "STOP!" systems, responsible for modulating the downstream limbic "GO!" regions.
With regard to the "GO!" vulnerabilities, the BBV has used functional imaging approaches (currently BOLD and perfusion fMRI) to show that conditioned drug cues (for cocaine, nicotine, heroin, and marijuana) can trigger limbic activation and drug desire ("craving"). This learned response to drug cues may lead to relapse in those who are addicted, and may also help propel vulnerable individuals toward addiction. The BBV has thus initiated ongoing projects attempting to modulate the brain-behavioral response to drug cues with medications (GABAergics for cocaine and nicotine cues; dronnabinol for marijuana cues, and oral methadone or depot naltrexone for opiate cues) and/or behavioral strategies for inhibition of cue-triggered craving.
With regard to "STOP!" vulnerabilities, BBV investigators have identified frontal deficits (hypoactivity and hypodense gray matter) in cocaine patients and have linked these deficits to addiction-relevant behaviors common in addicted adult populations (poor-decision making, increased risk-taking, poor inhibition, and poor affect regulation). Division researchers are currently characterizing structural (gray matter; white matter) and functional (perfusion) features in the "STOP!" circuitry of addicted adult populations, and will be using this information to help predict relapse and/or screen candidate medications targeting "STOP!" deficits.
The BBV has recently expanded its study of brain-behavioral vulnerability to adolescents-at-risk for addiction. This target group is critical for etiologic understanding, to determine which brain "differences" observed in addicted adults may actually pre-date and pre-dispose drug use -- offering rational targets for prevention of these chronic and painful disorders.

Nicos Gun is moving from their North Philly loft to Los Angeles on May 1st, and WKDU is lucky enough to host them for an intimate evening of laughs and songs before they leave! The funky four piece just released their second album "Dream Vacation" and performed at the Hamsterdam 4/20 festival in North Philly, so they will have plenty to discuss in addition to lacing us with their cosmic & genre defying grooves. Join us on air Thursday night at 10 PM to catch what will be one of their last Philly performances for a while - we'd love to have you!
"Banned Books' sound is multidimensional, molded into form by drummer/vocalist Zane Kanevsky and Matt Dermon on guitar. The duo has played together since God knows when, often with others but most recently taking shape as the two man band that's currently recording & touring to build the follow up to 2012's "Flawless Demo" (which was released on the Magic Death Sounds imprint). Freak rock in a basement. Arching, bending, swaying, trashy fuzz beats. Lots of heavy noise and a good chance of breakage. That's Banned Books. Let it sink in."
An experiment in street level boogie. Their energy on both stage and
tape...will mystify your body, tickle your fancy, and breathe sweet
breath into your chakra. Hailing from Philadelphia, they are a far out
expression in stripped down magic. With jangly riffs, tribal beats,
and fuzzy tones. They are Needle Points.

Of course, the whole thing is probably a lot more complicated than a simple binary. There are probably a bunch of different genes involved in creating what we think of as the prototypical woman and the prototypical guy. Variations in some of these genes probably create different gender identifications and sexual orientations, unrelated to the anatomical sex. We just don't know enough.
In short you can put ribbons on a pig's head but it is still a pig. (pardon the analogy Rock).

Besides, maybe he wants to be Australian. He wasn't born that way but so what. From what you say, that doesn't matter. He can be whatever he wants in spite of what he was born with. He wants to be Australian.

401 E Hennepin Ave, Minneapolis, MN | Directions 5541444.988481 -93.254965
Monday To Sunday From 11:00 AM To 02:00 AM
Neighborhoods: University, Nicollet Island
It's EXTREMELY hard to get me to write a review. But I have to ask, why does anyone come here? Because they think it's cool and hip? I guess having an expensive menu with a popular location goes a long way. READ...
Wow, first of all, I went with a party of SIX people. We were all denied service by our waitress because she felt we were too big of a party to serve alcohol too. Which by the way, the group of 12 kids behind us were doing shots standing on the table/chairs/ standing over people while fist pumping, which the management didn't care. The manager, AMY (a bigger blonde on the night of 7/21/2012); did not care AT ALL that we were a table of adults looking to spend up to 300$ on a single order. She simply said, "I stand behind my server refusing to serve you." threatening to have us bounced out if we questioned her. The bouncer looked ashamed like this is what happens on occasion sadly. Embarrassing considering we were all shocked she even resorted to us leaving without question. She didn't take a second to listen to any of us, now we will make sure not one of us/ our friends, ever goes there. I will follow up with the owner(s) and post an update if anything comes.
Simply shocking that we ordered food, while waiting for the drinks to come, to learn that they were never on the way, what terrible awful service. Worst in the twin cities by far.
Best Burger By Far – Great Burgers and good fries.. I had the Good mornig burger my friend had the spicy one? we both ate every bite. Will be back for more .
No respect and terrible food at the whole table. – Last night I received the worst service and food I've ever gotten at a restaurant. The Bulldog in NE was absolutely horrible to our group. They wouldn't serve three of us who were from Alaska because they didn't believe their ID's were real, it took an hour to get food ordered, an hour to get the food, and a half hour for the bill, which she tacked on an automatic (and far too generous tip). My food was burnt, soggy and expired! How do you manage that? My friends ordered medium burgers that came out well done. The hotdogs were disappointing. The server had an attitude the whole time. I will NEVER be going to the Bulldog again.
Disappointing Yet Again – Alright, i've been to the Bulldog a plethora of times over the years. I know places are hit and miss and you need to gve places more than one chance. When i first started going there the food and drinks were much better and higher quality my friends and i loved going there and it was always a good time! I do have to commend them for trying to encorporate all this new food they have, but it's just way too much and unfortunately it takes away from the dishes that made them a sensation in the first place. They do havea great happy hour, staff is nice, but lacking a quippe edge that use to be. The babbling brooks of a few members of the wait staff and the rank BO of others is a bit off putting. Whatever generally it takes a really nasty waitstaff for me not to return to a place and i'm not saying that the staff is that way at all. They do have a pretty nice patio for a sidewalk! Well stop in and hope your experience is a good one, think i need to keep the good memories of the Bulldog and just stop trying to make it anything than what it is now, a sports bar with mediocre food and a good spot to catch a game. Oh but do get a cupcake!
Horrible Service - Someone Could Get Sick – Went with a large group of about 10 or so. The burgers which were supposed to be done were left a pool of blood on the plate. The buns were soaked with blood. One guest ordered a Philly Steak sandwich and found some of the meat uncooked. How can one not cook a Philly thoroughly? It's thinly slicked meat cooked hard.
The waitstaff spent more time talking to each other and the bartender than actually doing their jobs. When members complained that there medium and medium well burgers were bleeding they acted put off by actually meeting the customers request. Pretty sure that chef burned a burger char-black that was sent back because it was bleeding.
Really Mediocre and Expensive – wow $50 for a couple of burgers and a couple of beers. Cheese not melted on burger (what kind of cook does this?, I mean come on!). Service slow as usual. I've given this place my business steadily for a couple of years. Now I am done with it.
Highly recommend any of the other establishments in the area instead.
In all fairness, Bulldog in Uptown serves pretty good food, and has better service. So go there instead.
Yum! Cupcakes! – Incredible cupcakes!!! The owner himself actually suggested them! Incredible. Pretty good burgers too.
I heard it was good?? NOT!!! – I love NE! The bartender was busier talking to the waitress then waiting on us. We felt like we were bothering him by being here. I asked the waitress no help there. Will not be back!!! We will enjoy the rest of NE around them!
save your time and money – If you want to be treated rudely and threatened if you complain, then this place is definitely for you. In their tiny cramped bar area you can enjoy the rude treatment and dismissive condescension from their wait staff, and when they get your order wrong (don't worry--they will) and you ask them to fix it, it will be your fault entirely. Expect them to use profanity on complainers and to physically threaten and intimidate anyone who objects to their poor treatment.
In terms of value for money, you'd be better off eating out of a garbage can (likely healthier and cleaner too)--when your order does finally arrive, expect to feel ripped off. The portions will be small enough that you'll wonder what you're really paying for, the quality of the ingredients will be stale, and you'll just feel like a fool for going there in the first place.
Professionals? Condo-dwellers? – This place is pretty decent. I like all of the workers; they're cool but not dorks about it. I failed to see any of these professionals, although I don't know if they were just condo-dwellers in disguise. I just saw a bunch of drunks and a few old school skaters.
I like the place and, out of all of what Northeast has to offer, the Bulldog has one of the more unique menus. The food is tasty but nothing will wow you.

Chicharitos de Sabor (recipe)
When I saw this recipe, I knew right away that I wanted to share it here on Latinaish. Of course the name of the recipe caught my eye – I love Javier Hernández, the Mexican footballer better known by the nickname "Chicharito" – but "Chicharito" or "Chícharo" is simply the word for peas. (Javier's father was given the nickname "Chícharo" for his green eyes, and that's how Javier became "Chicharito" – the little pea.)
Anyway, for once, my mind wasn't in the wrong place because this recipe does seem to be a play on words. Look at the little soccer ball-like "bolitas"!
Notice the red, white and green plastic food picks! (Colors of the Mexican flag) … Clearly Chef Maggie Jiménez is not only a creative genius, but a fan of Chicharito.
I haven't had a chance to try this recipe out but it looks almost as good as Javier Hernández on the pitch – chécalo!
Chicharitos de Sabor
4 Tazas MASECA®
2 ½ Tazas Agua
½ Cdta. Sal
½ Taza Aceite para freír
1 Taza chícharos congelados
½ Taza Queso manchego cortado en cubos pequeños
½ Taza carne molida
½ Taza Chicharrón
½ Taza Chorizo
Mezclar la MASECA® con el agua y la sal durante 5 minutos hasta que la masa ya no se pegue en las manos. Dividir en 20 porciones iguales y hacer 5 bolitas rellenas de queso, 5 de carne, 5 de chicharrón y 5 de chorizo. Integrar las bolitas con chícharos. Calentar el aceite y freír las bolitas.

The Center for Sustainable Polymers (CSP) integrates sustainability issues that focus on the science and technology of polymeric materials into research, education, and public outreach initiatives. Members of the center concentrate their research efforts on harnessing the renewable, functional, degradable and non-toxic ingredients provided by Nature for tomorrow's advanced plastics, foams, adhesives, elastomers, coatings and other macromolecular materials. To foster innovation the CSP partners with numerous companies that develop, implement, and advance technologies in the sustainable polymer industry. In addition to the research mission of the CSP, members also foster outreach activities to educate future scientists and the public about the science and technology of sustainability.
Prepare to Inspire
41 high school students and 17 undergraduate mentors visited the CSP this fall as part of the Prepare2Nspire program organized by the STEM Education Center. CSP graduate student Angelika Neitzel (left) works with students to dissolve PLA plastic into lactic acid. Students then compared the effectiveness of the lactic acid as a cleaning agent to other products, including commercially available green cleaners.
Bayer Lecture in Sustainability
Even a late April Minnesota blizzard couldn't keep more than 200 people from coming out to hear Proefessor Geoff Coates's lecture, "In Pursuit of the Perfect Plastic", this spring. In his lecture Coates explored the question, "Can we create the perfect plastic from renewable resources that is also environmentally friendly?", and he discussed his own exciting work in the field.

Coram, who represents District 58 in the Colorado House of Representatives, is the proud partial owner of four permitted uranium mines in Montrose and San Miguel counties.
Critics allege that his House Bill 1119, introduced in the current legislative session, seeks to help mining companies evade fines which the state could levy on them if they violate state regulations monitored by the Colorado Department of Public Health and the Environment.
CDPHE, as the sole regulator of radioactive material in Colorado, is uniquely empowered to levy fines on the uranium mining industry.
However, as Coram pointed out this week, violations related to the mining, extraction or processing of mineral resources are specifically exempt from the most recently amended version of his bill. He hopes to quell the controversy and steer attention back toward the bill's original intent, which he said was to reign in the CDPHE's ability to levy unreasonable fines on businesses for minor violations.
"Somebody's got some bad information, that the mining industry would have a free ride and no fines," he said of his bill on Tuesday. "That's definitely not true."
The misunderstanding may have stemmed from a widely circulated Durango Herald article in early March. Titled "That House Bill Will Cost You $65 Million," it described how HB 1119 "started with a desire to reduce fines on all types of businesses" but came out with a huge fiscal note attached to it because as it was originally scribed, the state would not be able to collect penalties and interest off of income tax violations.
Coram then scaled back his bill to address solely the regulatory realm of the CDPHE, and not any other state agencies. This version passed the House Business and Economic Committee in early March on a 7-5 party-line vote.
The Herald article emphasized that debate on the bill at that time focused on state oversight of mining companies.
"We all want to be good stewards of the land. But we don't want to have an undue pressure coming from an agency that can levy a fine simply because they have the right to do so," Coram was quoted as saying.
The bill, as it now stands amended, seeks to reduce the state's ability to slap fines on businesses for what Coram describes as minor (i.e. not an endangerment to health or environment) violations of CDPHE regulations.
"If it's not an endangerment to health or environment, companies would have 20 business days to cure the problem," Coram said. "If they cure the problem, there would be no fine."
Businesses would have 90 days to correct a paperwork violation before getting fined.
"It applies to anyone who deals with CDPHE, excluding mining and oil and gas exploration," Coram said.
As an example of whom the bill is intended to help, Coram points to a contractor who worked a dirt job along the runways at Denver International Airport. State regulations called for the use of silk as a means of erosion control on the project, which was in violation of FAA regulations "because silk gets into jet engines," Coram explained. The contractor opted for FAA-compliant straw waddles (long worm-like rolls of straw) instead.
Months after the contractor had finished the job, the CDPHE slapped him with a $120,000 fine for failing to follow the state-mandated procedure.
"They ended up negotiating a settlement for $35,000," Coram said.
Then there was the Delta County constituent who received conflicting information from the CDPHE in two different years regarding whether he needed an air quality permit for his sludge pond operation. "In 2003, he made an application, but they told him he did not need a permit. In 2009, they came out and told him he did have to have a permit and fined him $1,900 (for the years he had been operating in noncompliance)," Coram said.
"As I told the director of the CDPHE, we're not attacking the whole organization; on the whole they're doing a very good job, but certain individuals have taken regulatory power and abused it," Coram said. "In those situations we want the right to cure the problem. If it is a minor violation and something that can be fixed, we should have the right to fix it. That is the gist of the bill. I think what we're trying to do is work with them and put some common sense into what they're doing rather than penalizing for the sake of penalizing."
The bill has made it through the both the House Business and Economic Development Committee and the Finance Committee, and has picked up Democratic support. It heads to the Appropriations committee next. Senate sponsors for the bill include a Democrat from Pueblo and a Republican from Grand Junction.
"It's a good common sense bill that a lot of people haven't understood," Coram said.

Handcrafting Valentines each year for the kids to give to friends is a fun ordeal in our house! Here are a few ideas for handmade Valentines taking advantage of the quickness Fiskars tools adds to assembly-line cards. And the cuteness!
You Rock
These go together very quickly and are always a hit with the kids!
1. Create text box twice the width of candy and tall enough to cover up all of the miscellaneous cover text.
2. Add text as shown and print. Trim edges with pinking edgers or shears.
3. Fold around wrapper and staple at side seam so you do not disturb candy inside.
4. Add three music note punches randomly.
I'm Bananas for You
This monkey is not only incredibly cute, he goes together very easily with a few punches.
1. Punch an XL circle, XL heart, XL oval, and two pop-up punch circles.
2. Punch two 1/8 inch circles from heart as shown. This allows you to add eyes by simply layering without adhering little pieces.
3. Adhere monkey pieces together as shown.
4. Add candy bananas (sold in bulk at candy stores) to treat bag, fold over top of bag and staple once.
5. Cut a folded piece of cardstock with scalloped blade and staple over top of bag. This is a good time to address "to" and "from" on back of cardstock before assembling.
6. Add monkey piecing and sentiment strip to front as shown.
You're Grrrrreat!
Add a fun face to a lollipop to give it personality! Here are two versions depending on how much time you have to spend!
Simplified Version
1. Trace 2.5 inch circle onto back of orange cardstock using shape template.
2. Cut along drawn circle with Alligator decorative edgers.
3. Punch a large circle and adhere centered.
4. Draw on mouth and add small punched heart for nose and googly eyes.
5. Adhere to front of lollipop with glue dots.
6. Print out sentiment onto cardstock, gently fold, and adhere to stick as shown.
7. Punch XL circle to add "to" and "from" to back of lollipop.
Alternate Version
1. Trim 1.25 x 12 inch strip of orange cardstock. Using scoring blade in rotary trimmer, score every one quarter inch and accordion fold.
2. Adhere ends together and press down at center to flatten and adhere to punched circle with strong adhesive.
3. Continue the same as above beginning with Step 3.
